"Jan Jacobsen, tror jeg, den mest kyndige på Kong Christian IX fra Danmark, min oldefar og hans nedstigning.


Han har lidenskab for sit fag, som gør den sande historiker.

Jeg ønsker ham held og lykke med sit websted.


Michael, prins af Grækenland.

Prince MIchael of Greece and Denmark bears his double title because his grandfather, the Danish-born King Georg I of Greece (king from 1863 - 1913) decided that his descendants should carry both titles.


As male-line descendants of King Christian IX of Denmark, members of the dynasty bear the title of Prince or Princess of Denmark and thus are traditionally referred to as "Princes" or "Princesses of Greece and Denmark"
